“The decision on whether or not to remove any fixture lies with the Broward Board of County Commissioners,” (Jack Tuter’s) office said in an email. “The Seventeenth Judicial Circuit does encourage the Board of County Commissioners to remove the fixture if evidence suggests the monument stands for a person who was involved in racial discrimination.”

Even a bunch of next to worthless bureaucrats can figure this one out. Maybe once the statue of Napoleon Broward is removed from the courthouse the Broward racist judges (NHI) will learn a thing or two about the dispensation of blind justice.
It will give them something to think about besides doubling their pension benefits.

This is funny. If the County says broward was a racist then they have the change the name of the County. be careful City of Plantation and other areas and street names in the county formally called Broward

Tooty is just passing the buck. If you expect Tooty to stand on principle, you will be disappointed. Just another bureaucrat in pigtails.
Kick the can to the Broward Commission ? Great Tooty.
All I can say is they’re the ones who gave us Young at Art ! LOL

Excellent opportunity presented by this news coverage for voir dire and closing argument concerning racial profiling to now be able to discuss the monument to apartheid that all the jurors had to pass during the trial.

Being ‘gay’ is a condition – likely the result of a hormonal imbalance that occurred either in the womb or during puberty. It is, therefore, an incurable disorder that these people have to live with. For example, nobody supports a statue of a person who denigrated people with Downs Syndrome.

But you don’t see protests forming in Broward over this racial statue..sad.

Everywhere is racist against Blacks. That’s why they’re taking a knee on national television. Broward’s power structure is just especially good at it and particularly insensitive, whilst hiding behind a facade of fake liberalism and high walls in Rio Vista, Parkland, and Weston.

Instead of taking a knee which really does nothing, why don’t these sports players take some of their millions and move into getto back communities? Contribute to the education and lives of your poor black community and see if anything changes. Blacks go to the same churches and schools as the rest of us so why are their neighborhoods so violent? Why is it a great majority of black people have become so successful while others sit and whine?

Taking a knee is just ridiculous. They are being paid millions of dollars to play a game of football therefore it’s their job, not a proper place to protest. I don’t think it would work for any of us to go to work and take a knee. Taking a knee does absolutely nothing to help equality it’s just a means for famous people to show off.

Any Broward Judge that walks by that statue on the way to their courts where they sentence Blacks 20 to 1 times more often daily than they do other people should be ashamed unless they have the courage to speak out.

Let me get this straight. Hollywood took down little green street signs that were offensive but the Broward Judges won’t force the removal of a life sized statue of a monster at the door of their courtrooms?

Alternate facts folks. She had more white male opponents then hispanics and blacks. Does that mean she targeted white men? Get over yourself. Running against a minority does not automatically make someone a racist. Jahra mlawrence only ran against women (twice)…. he must be a misogynist.

Last week:The only statue in Broward’s criminal courthouse honors its namesake. Well after the Civil War ended, former governor Napoleon Bonaparte Broward believed in two nations, one for blacks and one for whites. While shocking today, it’s not far from the truth. We have created separate justice systems — one for the poor and mostly minority and one for the wealthy. Police arrest people for walking, biking and driving while black, and judges sentence blacks more harshly than whites. We must end the inequality in our criminal justice system. We can begin by removing the separatist’s statue.

Nothing like jumping on the bandwagon, Lit’l Howie.
The statue of this racist has been in the hallway right in front of the PD’s office for how many years ? And now you add your squeak after the matter of it’s removal has already been taken up ?
That’s safe enough even for you. Time to retire and quack on some condo board.

Racism cannot be tolerated. Broward County Courts have enabled a system of so called Justice not unlike the ideology proposed by Napoleon Broward, but instead of shipping blacks back to Africa, they put them and keep them in prison at proportionally much higher rates than that of white people convicted of the same crimes.
What’s wrong with the picture in Broward County ?
Remove the statue of the bigot Napoleon Broward and erase his name from the county named after him.
Broward Courts continue to carry on his legacy anyway until they are voted out of office and replaced with worthy judges.

As a tenured professor in a very prestigious University I must disagree with your assertion about Napoleon Bonaparte Broward. An examination of the historical record clearly shows Mr Broward was a homosexual white male born from white and black african descent. His parents practiced Catholicism and Judaism while historical records indicate a majority of his family were Muslim. Mr. Broward himself held an agnostic point of view. Further Mr. Broward had significant ties with the Hispanic Community as his wife and male mistress were both Hispanic. He also befriended the various Indian tribes located in Florida and work closely to ensure the safety of all Chinese railroad workers. His statue in the beliefs he held clearly represent a majority of this community.

Thank you Professor but I must point out that while everything you said is true, it is also a known fact that Governor Broward routinely tethered his pet dog Alfalfa, and to his and Florida’s eternal shame, let the poor dog die instead of agreeing to a course of veterinary treatment at a cost of $7500.00 that may have prolonged Alfalfa’s existence. He therefore is a monster to all politically correct modern Floridians of every race creed color and orientation.

Sounds almost as believable as the explanation one Former Broward Judge gave when she was caught boffing a prosecutor who was trying a case before her. Or maybe the one Judge Whimpy Greene gave for not really understanding the racist implications of NHI when he referred to a Defendant as Non Human Involvement.
I don’t care about the statue of Napoleon Broward . But the racism that exists on the Broward Bench needs to shed its skin once and for all for good.
Vote them all out and start over is my motto.
Having to appear before these Bigot Broward Judges is too much. You see it manifested every day.

Is anyone paying attention to the abortion of a trial tony loe is putting for Sara? Since the beginning of trial he has filed more than ten supplemental discoveries. I shudder to think what would happen to any other as a? I guess she didn’t know that much about her case. Best part opposing counsel is teresa williams. Happy 2020 mike!

Tony has had hardworking, smart, kind, prosecutors who care about doing the right thing demoted for less than what he’s done in this single case. He’s run others out of the office after it became apparent he would stop them from being promoted ever again. This has to be worth at least a reprimand.

I just don’t understand why the press has not written a story about how many people have left the office because of tony loe or the complaints about him. Isn’t there any true investigative reporting in broward? The turnover at sao is astonishing.

Can someone explain why he’s getting paid like 160K a year to try an attempted murder when he was supposed to be saving homicide from itself? Isn’t the going salary for attempt murder firearm/discharge like a third of that?!?

Those of us who used to work for Tony remember him fondly as a megalomaniac who picked on good ASAs until they left for the AG and he could replace them with a young girl he could “discuss cases with” with his office door shut.

Just another schlep who went out in private practice with Bailey and flopped because it takes real work and talent. Then came crawling back to the SA to pick up the pieces and Bailey became a judge, both sucking at the public trough again.
He’s no Casanova. More of a village idiot who flatters himself perhaps as a cousin sixteen times removed but too limp to pull it off anymore.
Seen him in court many times. Resembles more of a cartoon character than any convincing act.

A government flunky who lacked the wherewithal to make it in private practice. He was out of his depth from the beginning, thus the return to a flunky position with the SA. Seen it many times. He suffered a tough reality check. Remember when he thought he was going to be the next elected SA ? Just another pipe dream for an underachiever with an overinflated opinion of himself. The archdiocese ain’t going to make him no Saint so he can forget his attempt to network a deal with The Almighty for self advancement. God has bigger concerns.
Bailey on the other hand is just a disingenuous puffed up windbag who has sprung a leak destined to go the way of Hee Haw Destry.

Yep how Loe can you go loves to wait until the jurors are sworn and the trial is in full swing to turn over supplemental discovery. Acts like it’s no big deal.

And he’s been “discussing” cases with young female ASA’s for years. Generally over lunch together, in court, in the halls, stairways…everywhere. It’s no secret. It’s disgusting is what it is.
But not to Sara. She loves the help and spending time with him because she’s been terrible since when she was a third and out every trial day. Either because she was sick or her dog was sick. Judge Rosenthal did not like it. Does anyone remember that? Her version of my dog ate my homework was my dog is really sick so I’m heading to the vet.

And you expect anything else from a pair of talentless career government lackey looney-toons ? LOL
Hide the Ball Loe and Sara Sluice ?
Anything to give them an edge when the pair of them slid off the edge a long time ago.

I would feel sorry for him because he’s rather pathetic but his ineffectiveness as a leader is dangerous so I don’t. Dumping everything on the Judges and juries is just CYA. He needs to retire or be beaten at the polls.
